Hi,

   I had a few problems as well with that. What is your sd card formatted as? Did you download the files that i uploaded or did you compile/build them yourself.? You might have to reformat the card. I actually put the two files in my sdcard using windows 10 os.

I downloaded the files off your Google docs links.  Your first post had one Rockbox.zip and one upt file; your second post had a different Rockbox.zip with updates for bass/treble adjustments.  I used the upt file linked from the first post, and the zip file linked from the second post.

I think the read-only thing occured because I unplugged the device from the computer, without unmounting it.  On plugging it back in, dmesg tells me this:


--- Code: ---[1511695.530849] FAT-fs (sdb1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
[1511695.868103] FAT-fs (sdb1): error, fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0)
[1511695.868106] FAT-fs (sdb1): Filesystem has been set read-only
--- End code ---

Then running mount -o remount,rw  let me write to it again.

Believe it or not, I no longer remember what the card is formatted as.  It's the same 64Gb card I've been using in my Sansa Clip (zip?) for a couple of years.  I formatted it using some tool from a Windows 7 desktop; it might have been a tool I downloaded.  Now I'm using a RHEL laptop, so I have a different set of tools available to me.  Is that log stuff above telling us the the card is formatted FAT32?  That rings a bell.

The mount command says that /dev/sdb1 is of type vfat; the file -sL command says "(volumes > 32 MB) , FAT (32 bit), sectors/FAT 7613" (among other things).




Milardo:
ok, yes the card should be formatted as FAT32. Sorry i'm not sure what that log is telling you. Can you try to get a different sd card (if you want) to see if rockbox can run on your player? Format as FAT32 then add a couple of mp3 then might want to format it in the agptek rocker then add some mp3 files as well as .rockbox folder and the update.upt file. I'm going to upload the upt that enables that usb mass storage support as well which you can try out too.

Easiest thing might be to back up the ~42Gb of music I have on this card to my computer, then format the card in the player and proceed as instructed.  FYI the "about this player" says I have firmware version 1.2.

But it's interesting, the card seems to be working in the player.  The player is reading the music files I have in there, and building its little database of artists and albums. 

Milardo:
Yes i have the same firmware. Also yes the stock os on the player doesnt have any issue reading from my sd card, but formatting might help get rockbox working.
